Also audible in the footage is an officer telling the witness recording the assault to leave.

Cops need top stop doing this. If they aren't doing anything wrong, then there is no reason why they shouldn't be able to be recorded. If I was a cop, I would want people to record me so that it can be documented that I behave properly. Asking people to leave, threatening them or taking their camera fuels police brutality and cover up theories until they bubble over and all hell breaks loose.

This is the most idiotic thing I have ever read. It is called regret sex. Buying a car and then later finding out it isn't what you wanted doesn't give you the right to sue. Having sex with someone and realizing later that the person wasn't serious about it doesn't mean you can sue.

Edit: I looked into it more. Taken from the actual case which can be found here (look for Factual Allegations)

On March 9, 2014, Plaintiff sent Jane Doe a message on that site reading: “Hey ummm I don’t how to approach this but idk if I have your right cell phone number because I’ve texted you but got no response but I felt like we had a pretty good connection is that you?” Jane Doe responded: “haha I thought we did as well. it is actually also, I lost my phone at Das Klub so when I get it back feel free to text me if you like thanks for reaching out.”

Much later, In September 2014, Jane Doe applied for a study abroad program in Nepal. When she saw the list of applicants, she noticed that Plaintiff had applied as well. She then visited a therapist and described to her 'an evolution about how she felt about' her initial sexual encounter with Plaintiff, and that she had 'a strong physical reaction' to seeing Plaintiff’s name on the Nepal program’s acceptance list

A month later discussed it with the members of SPEAK, a W&L student organization, make her point that “regret equals rape,” and went on to state her belief that this point was a new idea everyone, herself included, is starting to agree with.

“James Deen held me down and f__ked me while I said no, stop, used my safeword. [...]"

And no one else on set stopped it? If this were true I think she would be filing suit against everyone on set who didn't stop it. Not a great way to make a case by targeting one individual. Not to mention that she should have complained to the company and documented it to further strengthen her claim. Instead she posted to twitter. Doesn't seem like something one would do to solve a serious problem.

Another accuser from 2011:

I was assaulted by James Deen.” She says that while she explicitly told him no, “He proceeded to straddle my chest, pinning down my arms with his knees. Then, he raised his hand high above his head, swinging it down and hitting me in the face and head with an open palm. He did this five or six times—hard—before finally getting off of me.”

She says that she “felt pressured to maintain a professional demeanor as this was a major porn set, with other people present and failing to intervene” and that she didn’t report it because “people — including the police — tend to believe that sex workers have placed themselves in harm’s way, and therefore can’t be assaulted.

She victimized herself by not being honest in the moment. Not saying anything removes validity to future claims. By not saying anything, she has proven that she will suffer whatever in order to get a check. That is a choice she made, if the incident actually occurred.
